A Volunteering Advenutre
Since I'm still searching for a full time job, I have free time on my hands. Some of my free time is spent volunteering. One such adventure is volunteering for the GRAY WHALE CENSUS AND BEHAVIOR PROJECT . For a three hour shift, I sit and watch for whales from on top of a cliff. You may think, "Wow, she's bored!". For me, being outside and looking for marine life is fascinating!
On my first day, rain was pouring down with gale force winds. Brad questioned, "Are you sure people will be out there?" I told him the manager of the project said volunteers are counting whales every day rain or shine. The manager was right, huddle in the protected corner of the building were the veteran volunteers, binoculars in hand looking for the whales. We did see Grey and Fin whales that day.
As you can see, some days are beautiful; sun shining without the wind.
Oh, I think I see a blow.
